Default The Lake County Library has some of these.

The book is all loaded on the device and it is so small it can fit in a pocket no problem. You need to have extra AA batteries on hand just in case they didn't replace them when it came back from the last person but other than that it is a great free ride. I will miss the free Library ebook downloads to my nook when I come to the villages but at least you have playaway.

Didn't see them in the Lake or Marion county library sites however.

I checked out one of these playaway format books-- Stephen King's Under the Dome-- from the Lake County Library a few months ago. One thing I don't like about them is that you really cannot listen to one while your driving like you can do with CD and taped books. It looks like the Lake County Library System has at least a few score of these playaways.
